3 greproxy is a daemon to turn an unreliable GRE tunnel (e.g. over
4 the open Internet) into a more reliable one; instead of
10 A -> greproxy -> Internet -> greproxy -> B
12 It is primarily useful for UDP video streams (e.g. multicast); it is not very
13 well tuned for anything else.
17 - Talks standard GRE, e.g. with Cisco or Juniper equipment.
18 - Can reorder packets (within reason), based on GRE sequence numbers.
19 - Forward error correction (through fecpp) using Reed-Solomon;
20 can handle a certain amount of packet loss without any more ill
21 effects than increased jitter. (Only works when talking to another
22 greproxy, not other GRE devices.)
23 - Can also work as a Linux tun device, instead of proxying to GRE.
